Summary

Billy Kool was an ordinary boy until he was thrust into the life of an extreme sports TV celebrity.

In this book, Billy and his friends, Sally and Nathan are onto their second adventure; whitewater rafting!

Billy can't see the point of learning French at school until he meets Pierre, a world champion white-water rafter who happens to be French. We follow Billy and his friends as they battle nerves and prepare for the most extreme sport yet. When Billy falls into the water, it's his new friend Pierre who saves him.

At the end of the book, there is an extreme information section, a glossary and a description of the equipment used when whitewater rafting.

Part of an 8-book series, the Billy Kool books are informative, empathetic and exciting; targeted to readers and reluctant readers alike ages 8-11 years.
